The Chinese are almost caretin to attempt to solve their demographic problem by resort to a combination of external rapine and imported concubinage. European and American women are unlikely to be much more vulnerable to this problem than they already are...nations subject to direct conquest are the likely targets. The economic warfare China plans against the Western nations do not include troop commitments for invasion.Indeed, military invasion would undermine the entire point of the economic warfare, which is to force a disengagement of the Western nations (which China cannot hope to match militarily) from those areas that are of interest as targets for conquest. Of course, the economic collapse of Western nations will increase existing sex-trafficking in and from those nations quite dramatically, and it is likely that the high-end market will draw heavily towards Asia (where the buyers will be demanding far more than the sellers thought they agreed to). But this is a manageable risk for informed persons, just don't sell yourself even if the price seems really good.In regards to standards of polite behavior, it is worth remembering that Western "neighborliness" and the tiers of respect common in Asian cultures are founded on completely different ideas. In Asia, you are not supposed to be polite to your social equals, it is actually unfriendly and "distant" to treat your peers with the same respect you would show to someone in a position of power over you. When America and Europe are no longer regarded as militarily powerful, the attitude of 'respect' cultures like Japan are likely to be very different towards Westerners.Chiu Chun-Ling.
